Classic Design Elements

A quick study between 1950 Abarth 205, 1970 jaguar E Type and the Mercedes AMG GT reveals the fact why the GT looks so familiar and why it is an instant classic. The proportions and design elements for timeless classics has virtually stayed unchanged for more than half a century.

I agree, the proportions are quite nice. The rear roof-line should have continued to the rear bumper, however. As for it being a future classic, I doubt it will become very desirable unless it's a GTR Pro or BS. I'm not sure as to how the "regular" models will age, however.
